The NCAA and NFL enforce targeting in different ways but both have rules in place to keep the game safer. This week’s Hot Read features a debate on how to best enforce this rule while also preventing things like players being ejected for hits that maybe are not as violent as referees see at first glance. We also hear from XFL fans with another “XFL Coast to Coast” segment!

As part of the Cover 2, there is speculation on why the timeline on city announcements is seemingly getting pushed back. Alan, Jake, and Vince also discuss how the XFL can keep the spirit of the original incarnation of the league without having as many silly gimmicks that led to it’s downfall.

This week’s show examines how the NFL’s new helmet rule has looked so far in their preseason and how the XFL will approach the issue. Also, the AAF has it’s first 100 players signed; did any recognizable names join the defacto NFL developmental?

We also introduce a new segment on the show called The Hot Read where we look ahead to the NFL and NFLPA’s deal expiring and how that could benefit the XFL.

Our march through the madness of picking the best cities for the 8 XFL teams in 2020 continues this week as we pick two northern towns that are prime and ready to host an XFL team. Last week OKC and Orlando survived the madness. What cities will it be this week!?

Hit us up on social media and let us know an original XFL figure you’d like us to spotlight as an “XFL Legend.”

It is March and with the madness spreading across the nation, it is the perfect time to make some brackets and figure out which cities should host the XFL in 2020. Each week during the month of March we will select two cities from four regions and at the end of the “madness,” we will have our Elite 8 cities for the new XFL!

This week’s featured XFL Legend: Gerry DiNardo

Hit us up on social media and let us know an original XFL figure you’d like us to spotlight as an “XFL Legend.”

This week we take a close look at the types of names and players the XFL should target and promote. Who should be the “face that runs the place?” Alan and Jake also discuss another city showing interest in the league and it is the debut of a new feature that will pay homage to the most important figures in XFL history.

Vince McMahon announced the rebirth of the XFL on January 25th, 2018. This week on the debut episode of This is the XFL, we dissect everything the head of the league said, as well as everything written and said in reaction to the monumental press conference.

Let us know what you thought of the big announcement made by McMahon and your thoughts on how it is being covered. We are also open to discussion on social media! Like, follow, and comment on Twitter and Facebook!
